what does a hair clipper look likeThere can be many reasons to learn how to cut your own hair. Do you want to create an image, and do hairdressers cut hair the way they see it? Are you not ready to regularly shell out sums to correct your hairstyle or beard? Do you want to change your image, but are not ready to constantly go to the salon?

How does it work

Modern devices are no different in design from devices ten or twenty years ago: they are based on an electronic motor, which, under the influence of current, causes the knives to rotate or vibrate. The higher the motor power and the more intense the movement of the blades, the more tasks it can perform. Nozzles are used to perform the assigned tasks. Let's look at each element.

Electric motor

The main structural element. Depending on the engineering solution used as the basis, two types are distinguished:

  1. The use of a rotary motor that imparts reciprocating motion to the knife block. Provides high power and good torque. Professional equipment is usually of the rotary type. This machine can handle any task, even complex ones.
  2. Using an electromagnetic coil (pair). A machine of this type does not have much power, because... A weak impulse is transmitted to the knives.Suitable for edging, adjusting, etc. work of short duration, short duration.

Summarize

  • Decide on your tasks and then choose a device:
  • A device with a rotary motor is suitable for complex, long-term work.
  • The compact, long-lasting vibration-type machine is easy to use and easy to carry out regular trimming and adjustments.

In addition, another criterion that determines the choice is the method of supplying voltage. Most models are equipped with an electrical cord. But for travel lovers, for places where 220V is not available, battery or hybrid devices are used.

A striking representative of such devices is a model with an electromagnetic coil - small in size, operating on a single charge for several hours. This is convenient, but there is always a chance that the machine will run out of power in the middle of the process.

If we consider hybrids, then this is, as a rule, a professional rotary type machine. If necessary, you can disconnect the cord and continue working. It has great power and does not last long in standalone mode.

Knife, attachments

Blades are the elements responsible for a beautiful and neat haircut. Steel or specially coated knives are used. The service life of ordinary metal is limited, especially low-quality alloy, therefore, with the help of spraying, the service life is extended, the quality of hair cutting is ensured, and the knives remain sharp longer.

IMPORTANT! In advertising, the compactness of the model, additional functions, and brand recognition are given first place. But the quality of the haircut and the operating time depend precisely on the quality and material of the blades.
